That's not good Dave. I hope whatever they decide will be the best to get you back in the game.

Wifes cousin was worked on recently, her quality of life jumped a ten fold once she healed up. She can move around like she hasn't in years. Keep your eye on the target. Good luck.

Have you considered getting the shots? I had 2 herniated disks (L4/L5, L5/S1) and tried this before sugery and it worked out well me and that was about six years ago.

Back pain blows, I hope you feel better.

yea Dave the waiting sucks. Relax as much as you can, try not to think about it. And hope you got a pretty nurse so you got something to look at before they put you out

I was really nervous before my surgery too. I don't like hospitals, docs, etc. Just go with the flow and let them do their things and you'll be fine.

Nah, not fun at all. I have L5-S1 bulge that is pinching my sciatic nerve. Been dealing with it for 3.5 years now, getting harder and harder to get out of bed every morning, hurts to walk, like a knife is in me 24/7. Sux..

Good luck Dave , I've had 3 operations L-4-5 ruptures done many yrs ago , It takes awhile to start feeling better after the operation, and you will recover fine .Just take it slow.
